About Us
The Scientific Research Marketing Unit was established within the Deanship of Scientific Research at Imam Abdulrahman bin Faisal University in Dammam in the beginning of 2020, under the supervision and support of the Deanship of Scientific Research who believe in the importance of marketing scientific research to serve and develop the society and to be in line with the aspirations of the Kingdom's 2030 Vision, which calls for bridging the gap between the outputs of scientific research and the requirements of society and the labor market. Therefore, the unit seeks to draw a clearly defined policy, through marketing IAU's colleges, institutes and the scientific research centers' outputs, and work to build a healthy research environment for faculty members, researchers, graduate and undergraduate students and to invest the results of their scientific theses and research projects, and provide all services to facilitate and encourage the work of researchers.
